Deerfield Elementary School Reviews

 
Teachers are professional & friendly. My son love to be in this school.

I am a mother of two boys: a 3rd and a 7th graders this fall.We moved from a different district because of the good review we read about Irvine schools.We did the best thing possible for our boys. I don't know about other schools in Irvine but I can compare Deerfield with other 2 schools from a different area : this is an excellent school, excellent teachers, excellent staff, PTA, environment, everything is great.I recommended this school to everybody I know.If you have your kids starting at Deerfield this autumn be sure that they will get the best education.

Mrs. George is amazing!!!! I love the school its great. I am sooo sad we have to leave because this school is no longer in our district. I cannot believe how much my daughter has learned in just a this past year!!!

What a shame that one of our own would use this anonymous and cowardly forum to slander our principal and put a dark cloud over our incredible school. Yes, Deerfield is a most magical place and very deserving of the National Blue Ribbon award. The ENTIRE staff is so very dedicated, capable and child centered. Also accurate, Mrs. McKeown is very high energy and friendly, however she is also bright, kind, innovative and has brought a restored sense of unity and pride to our school, and let's not disregard the 16 point increase in our API score under her leadership that ultimately earned our award. I would like to suggest that this disgruntled peer take the opportunity to speak directly with Mrs. Mckeown; her staff, community and students know full well how her door is always open and one is always welcome!

While the teachers and support staff are wonderful and so deserving of the National Blue Ribbon recognition, I am VERY disappointed in the leadership of the school since Mrs. McKeown arrived. She is high energy, but it seems as though she is never there. And, when she is there, she seems so unprofessional. It seems that she is more interested in being friends with people than doing anything to help the school continue to grow after receiving their recent recognition, which all was in place before she ever arrived, thank God, because if it was based on her work, the state and federal government would probably strip the school of their honors.

It is both a pleasure and an honor to be a teacher at this National Blue Ribbon school. The staff is commited to providing an outstanding education to all the children. There is a cohesive comrardarie between all the teachers and support staff. It is a great community of dedicated and involved parents!

Deerfield was named a California Distinguished School in 2006 and is nominated for a Blue Ribbon. Staff is amazing and dedicated; new principal Ms. McKeown is high energy and down to earth; PTA is very supportive and doing innovative things this year. School lay-out is not great--1970's open plan style.

We moved in the middle of the schoolyear and our neighborhood school didn't have space, so one of our children had to go to this school. It wasn't a very good experience! Our daughter got bullied on an everyday basis without getting help. Compared to other schools in Irvine we cannot recommend this one and we were very happy when our daughter could transfer to another Irvine school, where students and parents are treated with much more respect.

Deerfield is a great place since Dr. Thompson arrived. She has brought a whole new personality and sense of purpose to the school. The students love her, the teachers and parents respect her, and everyone seems to be getting along better since she arrived. There is more discipline and students are held accountable for their actions. The API for the school grew 30 points last year so she must be doing something right!

This school seems to be well run. The staff at this school, from the principal to the teachers and office personel, have been very helpful. Each child is treated as an individual and not just a c
